netfilter: nf_tables: allow to filter from prerouting and postrouting

2014-10-02T16:30:56+00:00

This allows us to emulate the NAT table in ebtables, which is actually
a plain filter chain that hooks at prerouting, output and postrouting.

netfilter: nft_reject: introduce icmp code abstraction for inet and bridge

2014-10-02T16:29:57+00:00

This patch introduces the NFT_REJECT_ICMPX_UNREACH type which provides
an abstraction to the ICMP and ICMPv6 codes that you can use from the
inet and bridge tables, they are:

* NFT_REJECT_ICMPX_NO_ROUTE: no route to host - network unreachable
* NFT_REJECT_ICMPX_PORT_UNREACH: port unreachable
* NFT_REJECT_ICMPX_HOST_UNREACH: host unreachable
* NFT_REJECT_ICMPX_ADMIN_PROHIBITED: administratevely prohibited

You can still use the specific codes when restricting the rule to match
the corresponding layer 3 protocol.

I decided to not overload the existing NFT_REJECT_ICMP_UNREACH to have
different semantics depending on the table family and to allow the user
to specify ICMP family specific codes if they restrict it to the
corresponding family.

netfilter: ebtables: create audit records for replaces

2014-09-09T14:31:28+00:00

This is already done for x_tables (family AF_INET and AF_INET6), let's
do it for AF_BRIDGE also.

netfilter: don't use mutex_lock_interruptible()

2014-08-08T14:47:23+00:00

Eric Dumazet reports that getsockopt() or setsockopt() sometimes
returns -EINTR instead of -ENOPROTOOPT, causing headaches to
application developers.

This patch replaces all the mutex_lock_interruptible() by mutex_lock()
in the netfilter tree, as there is no reason we should sleep for a
long time there.

netfilter: kill remnants of ulog targets

2014-07-25T12:55:44+00:00

The ulog targets were recently killed. A few references to the Kconfig
macros CONFIG_IP_NF_TARGET_ULOG and CONFIG_BRIDGE_EBT_ULOG were left
untouched. Kill these too.

netfilter: bridge: add reject support

2014-07-22T10:00:22+00:00

So you can reject IPv4 and IPv6 packets from bridge tables. If the ether
proto is now known, default on dropping the packet instead.

netfilter: bridge: add generic packet logger

2014-06-27T11:20:47+00:00

This adds the generic plain text packet loggger for bridged packets.
It routes the logging message to the real protocol packet logger.
I decided not to refactor the ebt_log code for two reasons:

1) The ebt_log output is not consistent with the IPv4 and IPv6
   Netfilter packet loggers. The output is different for no good
   reason and it adds redundant code to handle packet logging.

2) To avoid breaking backward compatibility for applications
   outthere that are parsing the specific ebt_log output, the ebt_log
   output has been left as is. So only nftables will use the new
   consistent logging format for logged bridged packets.

More decisions coming in this patch:

1) This also removes ebt_log as default logger for bridged packets.
   Thus, nf_log_packet() routes packet to this new packet logger
   instead. This doesn't break backward compatibility since
   nf_log_packet() is not used to log packets in plain text format
   from anywhere in the ebtables/netfilter bridge code.

2) The new bridge packet logger also performs a lazy request to
   register the real IPv4, ARP and IPv6 netfilter packet loggers.
   If the real protocol logger is no available (not compiled or the
   module is not available in the system, not packet logging happens.

netfilter: nf_log: use an array of loggers instead of list

2014-06-25T17:28:43+00:00

Now that legacy ulog targets are not available anymore in the tree, we
can have up to two possible loggers:

1) The plain text logging via kernel logging ring.
2) The nfnetlink_log infrastructure which delivers log messages
   to userspace.

This patch replaces the list of loggers by an array of two pointers
per family for each possible logger and it also introduces a new field
to the nf_logger structure which indicates the position in the logger
array (based on the logger type).

This prepares a follow up patch that consolidates the nf_log_packet()
interface by allowing to specify the logger as parameter.

netfilter: kill ulog targets

This has been marked as deprecated for quite some time and the NFLOG
target replacement has been also available since 2006.

netfilter: bridge: fix Kconfig unmet dependencies

2014-05-26T04:42:30+00:00

Before f5efc69 ("netfilter: nf_tables: Add meta expression key for
bridge interface name"), the entire net/bridge/netfilter/ directory
depended on BRIDGE_NF_EBTABLES, ie. on ebtables. However, that
directory already contained the nf_tables bridge extension that
we should allow to compile separately. In f5efc69, we tried to
generalize this by using CONFIG_BRIDGE_NETFILTER which was not a good
idea since this option already existed and it is dedicated to enable
the Netfilter bridge IP/ARP filtering.

Let's try to fix this mess by:

1) making net/bridge/netfilter/ dependent on the toplevel
   CONFIG_NETFILTER option, just like we do with the net/netfilter and
   net/ipv{4,6}/netfilter/ directories.

2) Changing 'selects' to 'depends on' NETFILTER_XTABLES for
   BRIDGE_NF_EBTABLES. I believe this problem was already before
   f5efc69:

warning: (BRIDGE_NF_EBTABLES) selects NETFILTER_XTABLES which has
unmet direct dependencies (NET && INET && NETFILTER)

3) Fix ebtables/nf_tables bridge dependencies by making NF_TABLES_BRIDGE
   and BRIDGE_NF_EBTABLES dependent on BRIDGE and NETFILTER:

warning: (NF_TABLES_BRIDGE && BRIDGE_NF_EBTABLES) selects
BRIDGE_NETFILTER which has unmet direct dependencies (NET && BRIDGE &&
NETFILTER && INET && NETFILTER_ADVANCED)
